ANT 303 - Women’s Global Health


Examines the plight of women’s health, globally, in both developed and underdeveloped countries. We will use several theories, including political economy, feminism and alternative (non-Western) medical perspectives to analyze how culture, poverty, ethnicity, social class, migration, location, diseases exacerbated by development projects, sexually transmitted diseases, pollution and environmental degradation, domestic violence, and reproduction affect women’s health. We will examine existing public policy on women’s health, and explore a human-rights based approach to women’s health. Prerequisite(s): Completion of one ANT course
